I used to be a big fan of Lindsay Lohan. She did a lot of fun fluffy teen comedy/romance movies and I was sure she was going to be a huge star. She showed some glimmers of real dramatic talent in a few things, but now she just seems to be a star because of her pap attracting antics. Well thankfully Lohan is in the news for something other than her evaporating figure and party girl habits.
Lindsay will be joining a film called The Other Side. Surprisingly this has nothing to do with her racy same sex relationship with a tomboyish dj girl, but rather a comedy that takes place on a remote island.
Lindsay Lohan will topline indie fantasy comedy The Other Side alongside Woody Harrelson, Giovanni Ribisi, Dave Matthews and Alanis Morissette.
The story centers on a grad student who must spend the summer working at a scientific institute on a remote island. She discovers an eccentric community of characters who are hiding a secret about a tragedy that took place many years before.
I am encouraged by including Woody Harrelson and Giovanni Ribisi. Both of these players have impressed me in the past, but then I am stuck with the stigma of attaching musical stars in what seems to be just for star power draw.
Dave Matthews has been in a few supporting roles in movies and tv, as well as Alanis Morissette, but I guess I don’t mind if they are smaller supportive roles.
